The limited edition, circuit-only RC 8C has been manufactured in conjunction with Krämer Motorcycles, just like the previous model. And, as you’d expect, that means it comes with all the track trimmings, such as quick-detach tank and fairing panels, lightweight Dymag rims and Pirelli racing tires.
The RC 8C’s engine is the same 889 cc twin-cylinder that KTM used in the 2023 model, but the company claims that it has been “improved”. We can only assume that it produces close to 140 hp, since the previous version delivered 135 hp and 98 Nm of torque. And there’s no doubt that this will be one of the most pleasant-sounding bikes on the track, thanks to an Akrapovič racing exhaust.
